This is the second time I attended the tour as a work outing. Everyone loved it - including one of my employees who was bit by a dog as we were walking. BTW, the dog's owner gave us bogus info so there was no recourse with the police. Thankfully, the victim wasn't injured badly and is on the mend. I would recommend getting a driver's license from the pet owner should it happen again (God forbid). Thanks for a great day out!

I loved this tour

I recommend this tour to anyone. Our tour guide was great. I loved seeing shops and restaurants that I would not have otherwise visited without this tour. My husband and I went back to some of the shops a couple of days after the tour because we liked them so much.

The tour was awesome. The tour guide was knowledgeable and friendly. We saw neighborhoods in Chicago that I'm sure we wouldn't have seen had we not taken the tour. We went back to some of the stops on the tour to purchase things. The only minor drawback was the walking felt more like 5 miles.

A must for any visitor to Chicago

I can say, without any doubt, this was the highlight of our stay in Chicago. We had an extraordinarily friendly tour guide (who was also very good with the four-year-old that was travelling with us), got to sight-see in many picturesque areas, and, of course, indulge in fantastic food. As well as enjoying the tour, you also receive excellent suggestions on future dining. Do yourself and your loved ones a favor and book now!

Good excuse to discover more of Chicago & EAT
Sat, May 10, 08   12:30 PM clairegolata Unspecified 30-39 Unspecified Family Without Children
Loved that I learned more about some of the more off-the-beaten track neighborhoods in Chicago while getting to sample some great/ unique food. Unlike many of the people on the tour who were experiencing Chicago for the first time, I'd been to Chicago several times (my mom lives in the Chicago burbs) and yet I still learned so much about Chicago that I hadn't known before. As for the food, yes, some of these places I could've went to on my own... but would I have ever known to do so? No way. This tour introduced me to places I would never have discovered, and I'm all the better for it.

Great Tour and Taste. Fantastic guide-Niki

We had a great guide on a beautiful fall day with family from out of town! We taste tested interesting and yummy items including tea, spices, cheeses, vinegars & oils, pizza, potato pancakes, butter toffee, etc. We received a lot of very interesting information about the places we visited and the products they carried, as well as the history of the area we walked through. Niki, our guide, was engaging, entertaining, and full of information.

I also took this tour thru Greenwich Village, NY. I loved it and recommended it many times. Went a second time with family as we were visiting. The Chicago tour needs more history and more diversity amoung the stops. Too much candy and chocolate. Deli - boring, and bad food. Tea shop - informative and great idea Old Town Fudge - fun, tasty, great stop Spice House - I shop there often and enjoy it. They need a bettter presentation and time to shop. Oil Shop - good idea - time to shop is needed Bacino's and Ethel's are fun. You feel too rushed on the tour. Add a half hour and let people shop. We did enjoy ourselves and appreciate your efforts.
